FASTER MAIL TRAINS. An earnost appeal is made by the Chicago press for more rapid mail fa- cilities botween that city and the ad- joining country. It is pointed out that there is not a mail train leaving any of the depots earlier that seven o'clock in the morning while New York merchants and newspapers are accommodated with trains leaving the city at 4 a, m., and furnishing early and rapid communication with a large area of tho neighboring states, Chic- ago is a postal center ranks second only to New York. She is the great distributing point of the west and the commercial metropolis of the Missis- mppi valley. While New York mer- chants under an excellent postal sys- tem are enabled to forward letters to their customers and receive replies by mail on thesame day Chicago is handi- capped by the loss of from twelve to fifteen hours through slow and late going mails. The service betweon Chicago and Omaha stands particu- larly in need of reform. The earliest through mails leave Chicago at 12:30 p. m., and reach this city at 9:456 on the following day. Letters mailed the night before in Chicago for Oma- ha and points beyond are compelled to lie over half a day in the postoffice entailing a delay whose value in dol- lars and cents to the commercial in- terests of the country would pay for the cost of running suitable trains ten times over. The distance between Omaha and Chicago ought to be made in thirteen hours without difficulty.

The Farmers’ Alliance has protested strongly against this gross wrong, which increases the taxation of the producers to enrich a gigantic mon- opoly. Nebraska's senaters have an opportunity to distinguish themselves by ‘making a united effort to remedy the evil, OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. At the conclusion of the last par- lismontary session Mr. Gladstone made the declaraticn that when he contrasted thie character and ability of the house of commons with the small amount of legislation that they accom- plish he felt that he could no longer postpone some method for checking the factious obstruction to business supine until within a few weeks. Not a fortnight ago a call for a meeting at the Mansion house, London, to con- sider the subject of the Jewish out- rages in Russia, signed by thinkers, wrtters, theologians and statesen of Great Britain, was denounced by the St. Petersburg organ of the Russian government a8 an imperiinent inter- ference, It is only lately that the Russian covernment has been aroused to tardy and reluctant action by the indignw ! protests of newspapers and statesroc . i civilized countries. Theio 15 nued of some sort of gov- erny wing immediately estab- lished 1 Pord, which will suppress riot and anarchy and restore order and law. At present chaos seems to reign supreme outside of the Chilean military. In a collision of two bands which had disgraced the past session, That his views have not changed dur- ing the recess is seen by the introduc- tion of a bill for “cloture,” or closing the discussion, whose object is to pre- vent what is known in congress as filibustering, and to enforce the right of majority rule. This so called ““cloture” differs from the call for the ‘‘previous question” as used in our de- liberative assemblies. The previous question may be moved by any mem- ber at any time, and its adoption by a majority puts the question to a vote without further debate. The cloture invests the speaker of the house of commons, or the chairman when that body is sitting in committee, with the right to propose at any time that the main question be now put. This mo- ask that Omaha should be reached in the evening of the day the train leaves here. The postoffice department owes to this city and to the northwest to procure the dispatch of earlier mail trains on the great through lines. But it is not alone Chicago and the northwest that 1s interested. The mail line from Chicago to Omaha is one of the great links in the trans- continental mail service. If the time between these two points is reduced, or if the service is rendered earlier, the way is opened for a reduction of the time of transporting mails from points ®ast of here to points west of Omaha, The city is not getting the attention from the postoflice department that its commercial importance entitles it to, and that some of the eastern cities are getting, The subject is earnestly commended to theattention of Mesars.

Ouk aim in extending the premium offer to Daily subscribers was chiofly to induce delinquents to remit their back dues and secure a six months prepayment, with a view of enforcing the prepayment plan adopted by all metropolitan journals, By this same plan we hope to increase our list of new subscribers. All subscribers now delinquent who do not remit amount due before March 1st will then be stopped. The inducements we offer have never been equaled by any news- paper in this country. Our plan and the full list of premiums can be found on the seventh pag EDWARD RODDIS, The news of the death of Mr, Ed- ward Roddis, which oceurred on Thursday morning at Albuquerque, N. M., will be received with general regret in the city. For ten years past a resident of Omaha, interested in her growth and contnbuting to her com- mercial development, Mr, Roddis was widely known and universally esteemed run earlier trains, That involves ex- pense,but the Chicago postoffice is one of the most profitable in the country, and that city has a good right to de- mand that a little more of the money which the government makest here should be expended for its benefit. e e Tue railroad lobby in the Iowa logislature have been unusually strong and unscrupulous during the present session. On Wednesday a groeat sen- eation was caused in the house by the exposure of a conspiracy in which theso gentlemen have had a finger and which involved the clerk of the house committee an railroads. During the absence of the chairmar a bill was handed by the clerk to a member of the committee, together with a report purporting to be signed by the com- mitee and recommending its passage. After its introduction suspicion was aroused as to the genuineness of the report, and by request the bill ws re- turned to the committee. Tt wasthen found that the minutes of the clerk had been made to conform with the report, which was pronounced bogus by every member of the committee, An inyestigation of the case is now in progress, The bill is a brief one, and is carefully and adroitly worded for the purpose intended. It was intro- duced by Senator Hall, of Burlington It amends section 1,061 of thecode by conferring upon railway companies the power (o increase therr indebted- ness to an unlimited amount, instead stead of confining the same to u two- thirds limit of the capital stock. The opponents of the measure claim it originated and has been engineered by the railway lobby in the special in- and respected. Mr. Roddis was a native of England, being born in Northampton in the year1819. He came to this country as a young man and tettled in Mil- waukee, where he engaged in the beef and pork packing business for a num- ber of years and won for himself ‘an enviable personal and commereial reputation, Owing to business re- verses he came west some ten years ago and settled in Omaha, As man- ager of Mr, Boyd's packing house, Mr, Roddis assisted greatly in organ- izing and building up the business until 1878, when he retired and with Mr. George Thrall founded the pack- ing house of Roddis & Thrall, with which he was connected at the time of his death, Two years ago Mr. Roddis was elected to the city council, in which body he served with that conscientious fidelity” to duty which was always so marked a trait of his character, A wide cirele of friends will join with the entire community in extend- ing their heartfelt sympithies to his family in their great sorrow. terest of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern railway, who confidently expected to get it through. Had the measure become a law, it would have enabled any company in the state to bond its road to such an extent that its revenue would not pay the interest, thus reducing it in the scale of classi- fication, when it could charge greater rates for passonger and freight trans- portation, E— REPRESENTATIVE ANDELSON, o Kansas, has introduced a bill in con- gress to compel the Kausas Pacific road to take out patents for all un- sold lands granted it by the govern- ment. The measure should secure o speedy passage, and its provisions should be applied to every land grant railroad whose road has been com. pleted. 1In the states of Nebraskaand Kansas hundreds of thousands of acres of the most fertile lands are now exempt from state taxation, because owned by the railroad companies, and held with no other certificate of title than an act of congress. Nebraska is robbed of many thousands of dollars tion is not debatable; butin order for its adoption, if there be a division, it must be supported by more than 200, or opposed by less than forty mem- bers. This curious provision is aimed at the obstructionist faction of the Parnellite parly. Their average number on purely obstructive votes is less than forty, and hence they will be rendered utterly powerless to delay the business of the house. In fact the rule as stated will not, in practice, deviate very much from enabling a majority to enforce the cloture. In a full house the min- istry could not muster less than 200 supporters without defeat and resigna- tion; und the language of the rule gives 201 members or more power to shut off a minority of any size. On the other hand, the house of commons is never full except on the occasion of important votes. Much of its prac- tical business is done with less than 100 members present. In such cases, the opppsition could seldom command forty votes; and again the cloture could be enforced against them. As this will probably be the actual opera- tion of the rule, it is not easy to see why the cloture should not depend upon a majority vote in the first place, unless it is intended to have the sec- ondary effect of forcing a larger num- ber of members in their places, 8 most desirable commendation. Other rules pressed for adoption re- strict the right of members to make dilatory motions in committee of the whole, and limits such right to one time for each member during the de- bate on any one question to move either that the chairman do report progress or that the chairman do leave the chair, No member shall spoak more than once to each sepa- rate motion, and no member who has made one of these motions may make another motion on the same question. Several other rules confer upon the speaker or chairman an authority very dangerous and open to possible abuse, to silence members occupying the time of che house with irreleyant mo- tions or discussions. There are also proposals for select committeos to con- sider bills and questions and to report them to the house. It soems aston- ishing that the house of commons, with the affairs of an empire on its hands, should have heretofore occu- pied 80 much of its time with the cussion and sifting of details which standing committees dispose of. The proposed conmitices are to be very large, consisting of from sixty to eighty members, and are to take charge of bills relating to law, trade, shipping and manufactures, Such is the esscuce of the changes in parlia- mentary procedure which are now being agitated in England. It is most curious to observe that those which are really valuable are uncon- soious copies of American ins‘itutions, Eloven yoars sgu’ilr. Gladstone de- clared, in a public speech, that the rish upas tree had three branches, which it would be his andeavor to hew off. The first was the church and state problem, the second the educa- tional question, and the third the abuses of the Irish tenure system, Hiatory will record how faithfully and how manfully he has followed out his purpose, in the face of the most over- powering obstacles, The government of Russia is be- coming alarmed by the universal con- aemnation which has been expressed in all civilized nations of the persecu- tion of the Jews in that country, and is about to publish a statement to show that it has taken steps to sup- press the anti-Jewish mobsand riots, and punish the persecutors. The ex. planation comes too late, however, The Jowish persecutions have been raging in Russia for nearly a year, and the government has remained of irregular Peruvian troops at Chin- dea, some forty or fifty foreigners were killed and property worth 88,- 000,000 destroyed. If these stories are true, ‘‘interference” by the gov- ernments to whose countries these foreigners belonged will soon be an accomplished fact.

Tae national debt of Russia on the 18t of January, 1880, amounted to $2,440,929,600, of which 810,000,000 were usually cleared off each year.

It is difficult for even skilled financial experts to un- derstand the mystery of Russian monetary affairs, her resources and outlays being different from that of any other nation. More than once a threatened crisis like the present has beeh avoided by seizing on the moneys belonging to the church and to chari- ties, or to all individual depositors in banks, for the use of the government. Basides these means of relief all pawnshops, loan and commercial banks in the empire are now under the control of the government. Since the defalcation of 25,000,000 roubles by the Nicholas gllvay, it is proposed that all railways I also pass under the management of the mmister of tinance. The present czar has set the example of rigid economy to his sub- jects during the last year. Seven im- perial palaces were closed, and their vast army of officials and servants turned adrift. Whether this would prove to be a popular move or not is doubtful. The enforced imprison- ment, for fear of assassination, of the imperial family, and the consequent almost total cessation of the customary gayeties and splendors of court, have thrown thousands of workmen and manufacturers in St. Petersburg out of work, which has not tended to make the new ozar more popular. The amount saved by his economies will not lift a straw from the burden imposed on the people, while the stir and impetus given to trade by a cen- tral, lavish court is apt to be over es- timated by the illiterate masses. The value of Queen Victoria's pres- ents to the pcor last Christmas amounted to over $1,500, which was divided among over 1,000 recipients. She gave 8500 to the Royal Clothing club also. There are numbers of men in this country whose Christmas gifts exceed those of Queen Victoria con- siderobly, and nothing is said about their charity, but the British papers conscientiously record every move- ment of her gracious majasty and the entire royal household, and thus this instance of extravagance on her part became known. As she only receives 81,925,000 yearly oul of the treasury, and has a paltry income of about $500,000 for the sale of eggs, butter and other farm produce, she must ex- ercise the greatest economy lest she might suffer from want. Her house- hold expenditures are large; she has numerous children to whom the par- liament enly allow about §500,000 a year, and none of these children are slf-supporting, but mainly depend upon their aged mother fortheirbread and butter, clothes and pocket money. Under such circumstances Queen Vic- toria can hardly be blamed for not giving the poor more than she does, Returns of the late general election in Germany have been published, which show that in a population of 45,284,000, while about 9,000,000 were entitled to vote, only 5,300,000 exercised this right of suffrage. Among parties the distribution was as follows: (German conservatives, 807,. 000; free conservatives, 393,000; lib- erals (including 700,000 national lib- erals), 2,021,000; secessionists, 460,- 000; progressists, 720,000; indepen- dents (‘‘savages”), 140,000; the cen- ter, 1,149,000; the Poles, 196,000; social democrats,335,000; popularists, or south German democrats, 119,000, and the Alsace-Lorrainers, 160,000, Some notion of the cost in England of land transfers may be gathered from a letter recently writton by a law firm in defense of their profession against the charge of high fees. The land in question was sold for §62,600.
